Subject: [PATCH 5/6] platform/wmi: Extend wmidev_query_block() to reject undersized data
Date: Mon,  6 Apr 2026 22:32:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260406203237.2970-6-W_Armin@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260406203237.2970-1-W_Armin@gmx.de>

WMI drivers using the buffer-based WMI API are expected to reject
undersized query results. Extend wmidev_query_block() to enable
the WMI driver core to perform this size check internally.
